Statement of Los Angeles County Democratic Party Chair Eric Bauman on Release of “Troopergate” Finding
Bauman Blasts VP Nominee Palin for Failing to Deliver Straight Talk

LOS ANGELES - Los Angeles County Democratic Party Chair Eric Bauman today released the following statement on the finding of Governor Sarah Palin’s unlawful abuse of power:

“The American people want change. This abuse of power proves a McCain-Palin Administration would just be more the same. Not only does this call into question Palin’s ability to govern, it calls into question McCain’s judgment in picking Palin knowing full well she was under investigation.

“No wonder they tried so hard to stonewall the investigation, they are picking up where Bush left off.

“Where is the ‘straight talk’ now? The American people deserve better.”
